Ethnopharmacological Relevance: Endometriosis (EMS) is a common gynecological disease that causes dysmenorrhea, chronic pelvic pain and infertility. Luoshi Neiyi Prescription (LSNYP), a traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) formula, is used to relieve EMS in the clinic.
Aims: This study aimed to examine the active components of LSNYP and the possible mechanism involved in its treatment of EMS.
Endometriosis (EM) is a long-lasting inflammatory disease that is difficult to treat and prevent. Existing research indicates the significance of immune infiltration in the progression of EM. Efferocytosis has an important immunomodulatory function.

It is a circular molecule of 15, 376 bp, composed of 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 22 transfer RNA genes (tRNAs), two ribosomal RNA genes (rRNA), and an adenine (A) + thymine (T)-rich region. All protein-coding genes (PCGs) are initiated by the ATN codon except for cytochrome c oxidase subunit 1 (cox1) gene that is seemingly initiated by the CGA codon.

When the pH, ozone dosage, ozone bubble diameter and catalyst dosage of the ozonation were 7, 0.4 L/min, 5 μm and 3 g/L, the chemical oxygen demand (COD) removal efficiency reached 74% and the ratio of biochemical oxygen demand in five days/COD (BOD/COD) increased from 0.

CO₂ is not only a carbon donor for photosynthesis but also an environmental signal that regulates stomatal movements and thereby controls plant-water relationships and carbon metabolism. However, the mechanism underlying CO₂ sensing in stomatal guard cells remains unclear.
